![]() So as most of you know I got my car not too long ago. I am also in the process of moving, and today my dad was supposed to drive the car out to where I am moving since I was in school.
So it was raining all bad today (most of you know where this is going). And he is on his way to the new house driving down the street and someone speeding comes down the street and slams on the brakes becuase my dad is driving with caution cuz of the whole RWD + rain thing. Of course this guy doesn't have ABS so next thing you know he hits my dad (not that hard), but sends my dad into a spin. He hops the curb and hits a fire hydrants (barely hit it), and then hits a tree. Luckily he wasn't going that fast and was wearing his seatbelt so he is alright. The car isn't lookng the greatest. He needed someone to pick him up so i wen to pick him up and saw the car. The back right tire pushed in from the bottom, the front right tire has some scuff marks from the fire hydrant. the front bumper was pushed in a little on the right side, the lip disconnected from the right front fender, and the fender is ripped up. The fire hydrant took out my sidemarker, cracked my front signals, took out my antifreeze pipe, and some outher parts in that area fell apart (not too sure what they were). The rear right fender hit the tree I guess, it got dented on the wheel well, and the rear bumper took some scratches. The person who hit him ran away. The insurance was just ordered on the car, but the tow truck guy said that it will probably end up being a total loss, so I will have to fix it all. Mainly the rear alignment needs to be fixed, replace and paint the rear fender and the front fender, and front bumper. The rear bumper didn't take too much damage. Also need to fix a few things that got damaged on the front right. At least now I will get the entire car repainted. And there are some donor cars in a junkyard nearby. Not to sure when it will be fixed, with the purchase of the house we are strapped for cash. So prolly won't be fixed for a while, good thing I don't really need the car right now. No pics of the car, forgot to bring my camera. Now I will not be able to bring the 240 to the 240 meet on Sunday (bad timing ![]() What sucks most was I didn't drive the car that much (due to no insurance on it). Only thing good about this is I get the car repainted, but prolly going to be a long downtime ![]() RWD + Rain + *sshole drivers + semi-bald tires = ![]() ![]()
